The Earth is not 6,000 or 10,000 years old. It's not. And if that conflicts with your beliefs, I strongly feel you should question your beliefs.
Bill Nye
Image
Religion is a completely different thing from the claim that the Earth is six thousand years old. That's just crazy.
Bill Nye
Image
The natural world is a package deal you don't get to select which facts you like and which you don't.
Bill Nye

If the Earth gets hit by an asteroid, it's game over. It's control-alt-delete for civilization.
Bill Nye
Image
America has had many other discoverers besides Columbus, but he seems to have made more satisfactory arrangements with the historians than any of the others.

What happens to other species also happens to us.

I speak with dogs frequently. They don't really talk, but I feel they're communicating.
Bill Nye

Intuitively you want some place [such as your phone] to store phone numbers, so you have that part of your brain to do other tasks.

The debate [in Undeniable] was nominally about creationism as a viable explanation for what we observe around us. For my side, the debate went very well I'm not sure what I would change, although I can imagine shortening my answers during the rebuttals, perhaps.

That's what makes a human a human, if we store information outside our bodies.
